continuous是持續不間斷地做某件事
I have been talking continuously for hours.
字尾的-ous 的o剛好是個圓圈 所以一直在畫圓圈 沒有中斷過
continual則是重覆地做某種事
I will call you continually until you answer the phone.
字尾的-al中的a把它想成是again的a
所以是over and over again那種感覺

continual - continuous
Continual and continuous can both be used to describe things which
continue to happen or exist without stopping.
...a continual movement of air.
...the necessity for continual change.
...a continuous loving relationship.
★Continual can only be used in front of a noun. You do not use it after
a verb.
★Continuous can be used either in front of a noun or after a verb.
It is dangerous to circle the head round in one continuous
movement
The change was gradual and by no means steady and continuous.
★If you are describing something undesirable which continues to happen
or exist without stopping, it is better to use continual rather than
continuous.
Life is a continual struggle.
It was sad to see her the victim of continual pain.
★Continual can also be used to describe things which happen repeatedly.
He still smoked despite the continual warnings of his nurse.
Valenti's face was handsome though bloated by continual drinking.
★It is usually regarded as incorrect to use continuous to describe things
which happen repeatedly.

我都這樣記的
兩個字都有連續之意 但是
continual 這個字比較短 所有中間有斷
contunuous 這個字比較長 所以中間沒有間斷
